Memphitz Sues Producers Of ‘Love and Hip Hop Atlanta’

If ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’ creator Mona Scott-Young thought dealing with the antics of her out of control cast was a lot to take on, she has a whole ‘nother headache on her hands now that Memphitz, ex-boyfriend to singer K. Michelle, has filed a lawsuit against the show. Throughout the taping of the show, K. Michelle repeatedly told the story of how her former ex and label head spent up all of her money, left her for broke, almost ruined her music career and beat her badly. Even though she didn’t mention him by name on the show, she definitely didn’t have a problem openly saying Memphitz’s name in interviews and hopping on Twitter to air him out a few times while throwing a few insults at Memphitz’ wife Toya Wright.

Now that the season has officially wrapped, Memphitz has decided to take legal action and has filed a lawsuit against Viacom International; NFGTC, Inc.; and Mona’s Monami Entertainment. He’s claiming that K. Michelle’s accusations of domestic violence are complete lies and the show gave her a “worldwide platform” for her to “assassinate [his] character”:

“My family and I have suffered tremendously while VH-1, Monami Ent., and the other companies provided a worldwide platform for K. Michelle to repeatedly assassinate my character. The filing of this suit is to compensate for the irreparable damage that has been done to my reputation and to deter these companies from doing such future harm to others.”

Meanwhile, his attorney, Conti J. Moore says that K. Michelle was just seeking sympathy without giving an ounce of proof to her claims:

“[K. Michelle] has taken full advantage of society’s tendency to accept claims of domestic violence as always being true, even in the absence of proof. The only abuse that actually occurred is the malicious and calculated pattern of vicious lies Ms. Pate has assailed for the purpose of fabricating a compelling story line in an attempt to ruin my client’s name.”

“Domestic violence is an issue of serious nature, often having grave consequences for true victims with whom we all sympathize. However, it is unconscionable for one to play on the sympathies of the masses by levying false accusations of such heinous acts against an innocent party, simply for the sake of entertainment or for purported career advancement. After reviewing the evidence in this matter, we are prepared to litigate this case to the fullest extent of the law to seek justice for our client and to restore his name and professional reputation.”

Memphitz is asking for $1 per viewer per show as damages, and with the show averaging almost $3 million viewers an episode, he’s looking at some serious bank if he manages to win this.

Accusing someone of Domestic Violence is a serious allegation. However, as a Woman and as a woman who has been a victim of DV, it is careless, heatless and just plain CRAZY to say that any woman who is trying to speak out somehow needs “PROOF” for her claim to be valid!

My ex husband hit me and I called the police. They came to my house and said they couldn’t do anything because they didn’t see any marks or bruises. So the few other times it happened again, do you think I bothered to call the police? Do you think I told my husband, “Can you please hit me harder so I can have a mark and I can take a picture of it and have proof?” Through the grace of God, that man tried to kill me and didn’t succeed and was caught in the act and arrested. I am thankful that I was young and had the support of my family and never was asked for no damn PROOF.

You folks better wake the hell up before, Lord forbid, you’re faced with a similar situation where your daughters, mothers, cousins, nieces, aunts, etc. are speaking out against violence that is done to them! Because I doubt HIGHLY you will look your loved one in the eye and say, “But where’s your PROOF!?”

Well, I hope K Michelle has some type of receipt(s) to back up her story… I knew Memphis was going to wait till the end of the show to do this… SMH SAD… I honestly don’t think they will pay because she never mentioned his name on the actual show… Whatever she did on Twitter- – that’s Twitter!

Not really because no one ever said his name on the show! Yeah people put two and two together, but it was also his “I made you” tweet to K Michelle, Rasheeda saying ON THE SHOW it was her “friend’s husband” , Toya adding her two cents in, and their friends adding their two cents in basically confirming it was Memphitz she was talking about.

& do he really know what he’s up against by suing VIACOM? The company that owns everything including the network (BET) that their show is on? I can’t LOLOLOL!!

But I see this case going absolutely nowhere & after all of this, I see he still hasn’t sued K Michelle for slander! Her pockets may not be deep but at least it would’ve cleared his name…..

+40DaiShanell Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 3:26 pm

I say time for proof, not because K. Michelle needs that to validate her domestic violence, but because she is really going to need it to shut this foo down!

-34Local Celebrity Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 3:36 pm

Um… y’all need to go back and watch the show again… She indeed did say “Memphitz” when she was sitting at the table either with Erica or Rasheeda.. She said his name in one episode. I think she had a white sleeveless top on.

@HunE916, I agree, I totally agree, but your situation is not the same as K. and Memphitz situation.

1. K. started the accusations in 2010 before the show, Memphitz hasn’t denied that. On top of that there are actual witnesses who remember her coming out with these allegations right after Memphitz appeared on Toya’s reality show (that’s the real issue).

2. K. Michelle hasn’t been very consistent with her story which is very important if you are going to use a national forum to tell it. Not only after Memphitz told his side of the story did K. decide to add a few things to her side of what happened.

3. Memphitz is the ONLY person to mention police presence, this is very important. It’s not what happened when the police were there it’s that why K. STILL hasn’t brought up police presence.

4. ALSO, you have to remember that K. stated that Memphitz beat her so badly that she blacked out which she the beating was very brutal. Shortly after the incident (and after police were present) nobody saw any visual marks on her or any sign of distress. They went to a family get together afterward.

5. Everybody calls K. crazy because when she was with Memphitz she didn’t know how to act around the people he had built strong business relations with. Not JUST because she came out with the allegations, to most people the abuse allegations are the icing on the cake to how crazy and immature she really is.

5. People are asking for proof for a few reasons, one of the ones you stated and also the fact that she got out of her deal with Jive and didn’t have to owe them because she states that she sent them proof of the abuse. This raises alot of questions about the situation because she says she has proof which makes us wonder why she hasn’t shown the proof on national television. Memphitz admitted that he called Mona to say that he will take legal action if K. says his name but doesn’t present the proof. She had all season to present that proof and still has chosen not to. On top of that, K. was very VERY specific pretty much to the point of identification. The loop hole in and of itself was not stating his name on the show, and she took ADVANTAGE of it which does make her look opportunistic. It’s one thing to state you were abused by someone in the industry, it’s another thing to be VERY SPECIFIC about who it was knowing full well people will find 1+1=2.

6. When you are a celeb, you are automatically a suspect in the court of public opinion.

I wanna see how this pans out because I personally feel that K. will be called as a witness and unless there is a granted motion to dismiss any proof of the abuse from the proceedings, she’s going to have to put out or apologize for all the drama she caused. If he succeeds, Mona is not only going to fire K. but she is also going to sue her something serious and well K is gonna end up in the dumpster as far as her reputation.

+15AudaciousAngel Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 4:20 pm

In my oppinion,Memphitz is suing the wrong people. If he wants the “lies” to stop he needs to get the source: which would be K. Michelle. Why not sue her? What are you going to do? Sue every person, production company, television company, radio station, etc. that decides to interview her or that decides to air her story? Furthermore, said companies NEVER identified Memphitz as the person K. Michelle referred to. So all of this is speculation. Why not sue Twitter? That world wide platform is where he was identified. What about ere I’m going with this? All of this could be put to an end if Memphitz sued K. Michelle. But he won’t. And I beliFurthermore, said co This is just deflection if you ask me.

My mere point was most women in physically abusive relationships don’t have “Proof”. And just because she doesn’t have a photo, text message, police report, etc, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen or she shouldn’t be believed.

Anyway. I also think he’s suing the wrong people. In order to prove defamation or slander, you typically have to show that the entity acted with actual malice. I don’t see how he can prove Viacom was trying to intentionally defame his character.

LEt me tell ya why I’m mad….. I’m mad at Rasheeda for the reason behind why she DOESNT BELIEVE K. Michelle… like is she even serious? Rasheeda as a WOMAN u need to really sit on that one.. she had me tight… and honestly i believe K Michelle … that look … ohh man idk… that look just said everything i need to kno… f the proof.

LilLeesa Reply:December 28th, 2012 at 1:59 pm

ACtually since he is the one bringing the suit against the show and her, he has the burden of proof. He basically has to prove that he didnt hit her. She doesnt have to prove that he hit her. THat is going to pretty hard to do, especially if she does have proof or other people who witnessed the abuse. Plus she never said his name on the show so the show producers wont be liable. He could go after her for saying those things on twitter but again he has the burden of proof as the plaintiff.

K. Michelle honey time to bring out those text messages… lawd *sips tea*

Like memphitz are you for real, if you didn’t beat on K.michelle, then why do you feel the need to sue? She never said your name once on that show. This situation is very irksome

+20Ladii Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 4:46 pm

The reason he’s suing Mona and Viacom is because that was her original platform that created the speculation in the first place…and Viacom is the “mother company” to the show. If he sues them it causes them to reevaluate the relationship they have with k. Michelle and whether to continue business wise with her if it will continue to cost them money in legal fees. They knew what her accusation would cause and continued with her story line without providing proof of whether it was true or not. She is under contract and is a cast member of their show so they are legally responsible for what she says and does….even if it is only implications on the show….she went on to later confirm that it was indeed him which is enough of a confirmation as any….as a victim of DV I didn’t need or seek proof of anything….the people around me saw that something wasn’t right with him and he was a little off. Not only that…I had more than one person who witnessed his abuse….not every situation is the same but someone sensed or saw something and they need to speak up if it is true or not….

From your point of view it really does make sense for him to go after Viacom and Mona. While people were asking when he was going to do something about it he was conferring with his lawyer on the best plan of action, would it make sense to go straight after K. Michelle or the whole establishment that allowed her to present that platform, and they really can’t deny it seeing that she’s been accusing him since 2010. Toya gave us a hint of it in her latest interview, these lawsuits take time to come up, people were expecting him to do something right after his radio interview.

Another thing I want to point out is that K. did mention having proof and using it as a means for her to get out of her deal debt-free with Jive. This as a result did get Memphitz fired. Now that raises a red flag but people have to understand that that’s not entirely an admission of wrongdoing on Memphitz part because remember, he even included that in the reason he got terminated. The music business is a small world, and label politics are VERY REAL. K. has a bad reputation stemming back before the allegations in 2010, the reason for that is because people can attest to what happened when she was with Memphitz. She didn’t know how to act in a professional setting, she was almost always acting immature and childish, and as you can see on LHHA, she’s very extroverted and abusive. That and a number of reasons as to why she has a bad rep in the business and in Atlanta. That was well before the alleged abuse happened.

What we know about her is something the people over at Jive knew about her from jump. Memphitz, as an employee of Jive, was getting a bed reputation because K. Michelle was the artist the he was promoting. He had to consistenly apologize to those people he had networked with about her behavior. Jive knew this, as a result, when she was about to get dropped, they probably already considered firing Memphitz because this was HIS artist. I personally feel that when she came out with the abuse allegations with texts and pictures that’s when they said ‘THAT’S IT’ let’s get rid of both of them and wash our hands clean. She’s acting a fool, making him look bad, and ultimately making JIVE look bad. Jive didn’t need that so to rid themselves of the drama, they couldn’t wait to get rid of them both.

+52MAYDAY Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 1:39 pm

And another thing K. Michelle has been telling this same story for years… Idk Memphitz everyone knows (in my Phaedra voice) that you’ve been in LA for months trying to find work– this is looking shady! But then again why would he sue knowing he would lose… idk

Suing VIACOM just shows his motives are about money. Suing K Michelle would’ve showed he was really serious about his reputation and clearing his name, but that’s IF he was really trying to clear his name >_>

+13the anti idiot Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 3:04 pm

People were clamouring for Mephitz to sue is it’s not true and now that he has sued, people are calling him irksome/ Lol. Bring out the receipts. Vindictive people are so irksome.

I KNOW, I READ IT ON A BLOG YEARSSSS AGOOO. I DO BELIEVE AND NEVER LIKED THIS MAN. HE FOUNDED T-PAIN AND IS BROKE AS HELL. SAW A MEAL TICKET WITH TOYA. WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS GUN CHARGES AT THE AIRPORT.
NOTICE HE AINT PHOTO WITH THE TI SHOW, WHERE IS HE??

He wants money and most of all to expose K. This is an effort to burn down K.’s figurative house and home and have her running out naked and exposed. If you get my drift.

IF (or better yet, WHETHER) he succeeds, the truth will come out and we will see what the real deal is. Going after Viacom and Mona is a way for them to question their relations with K. as a result and if even having her on the show was a good idea given all the drama surrounding this abuse allegation. He’s confirmed that he did lose his job because of this so asking for money is feasible given that did happen.

I want to see the outcome, I have my opinion on the matter, but that still doesn’t change my impartial stance because we weren’t there.

I was just thinking the same thing. Notice how K. Michelle is NOT named in the lawsuite. Also know, that VH! and everyone else he is trying to sue had a time to settle out of court. They declined. And what does that tell you?! They clearly know they can win, because big corporations are not about to hand out millions when they can settle. smh. Mind you she NEVER said his name. He outted himself. He is not about to get a dime from any of these people. He will have to prove that it hurt him in business, and really who was checking for him before this?! Chile please.

I believe K Michelle. I seriously don’t think anyone could get on TV and stick to their story that well. When Rasheeda said that she has never seen signs of that man, I am sure Toya did but she married him anyway. 9 out of 10xs an abuser comes off an that great guy and ppl never suspect. He will not get a dime but I believe that some truths will come out because he is giving himself away, he harassed K Michelle on Twitter and she still never said his name if he didn’t attempt to abuse her why would he even feed into any of it. If he would have just kept quiet we would have never known who she was talking about.

Everyone know to get on LHHATL or any other show Mona is doing you have to show the proof.. thats why Joseline had to pee on the prego test right in front of Mona.. She doesn’t air false information. That’s why she asked K.Michelle to be on the show. She seen the proof prior to having her sign the contract. That’s why no one is bother by this lawsuit and they are not settling. Memphitz said in his interview with TT Torrez that he covered K.Michelle’s mouth so she would stop screaming and restrained her but he was trying to get away from her. Now for all the smart individuals out here can you explain to me that if you was trying to get away from someone why would you cover their mouth so no one could hear them?? Wouldn’t you want someone to hear so the cops could come. I know from personal experience with police and my ex husband that it doesn’t matter if you have bruises or not if you don’t say that your husband did it they won’t arrest him. I had a black eye and busted lip and 1 of the neighbors called the cops but I told the cops that my husband didn’t hit me so they didn’t arrest him. Memphitz had no choice but to file a lawsuit to satify his wife. Now I hope they are ready for what is about to come out!!

I wonder what Toya & Rasheeda will say after the text message gets release..

I believe K Michelle. If she making things up about you, why you not suing her. Something aint right with that. If she never said your name why did you respond by saying things about her. That makes u look guilty.

First let me just say this @DA why are you taking up the whole page??? Could you not have shorten that a little??? I’m just saying!!!!!

Secondly why did Rasheeda made it seem like he was a Babyface or Brian Mcknight type of guy. Gurl clearly he looks like the type that would hit a woman, hell he probably put his hands on Toya too!!! I’m just saying……

I don’t know who is lying or who is telling the truth; but this needed to happen. All the back and forth without any proof for either side.

VH1 and the producers/creators of this show used this situation for rating. So IF there are lies, the need to pay.

If Memphitz really did do all the things, I just can’t see him going against a big machine like Viacom. He will never work in the industry again; therefore I hope he is telling the truth. If not, he is finished!

WELL ITS NOT LIKE WE’VE BEEN HEARING ABOUT ANYONE KNOCKING HIS DOOR DOWN WITH OFFERS SO I JUST THINK HE’S TRYING TO SAVE FACE TO SAVE WHAT LITTLE HE STILL HAS LEFT. REGINA IS GETTING OLDER SO TOYA’S CHILD SUPPORT CHECKS WILL SOON BE EXPIRING. LOL!!!!! ‘BAAAY-BEE YOU GOTTA GET A JOB’!!! (IN MY TOYA VOICE). LOL!!!…….JENNY JONES!!!

-7IMO U MAD? Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 2:58 pm

The motive SHOULD be money since she made money off of slandering him then he should too. Period.

I personally believe, whether or not you believe the allegations we should all be able to agree that what he is suing for “defamation of character” can be supported. It’s evident in the comments on this post, that could be used to support his case might I add. Not only did she allege that she was abused, she also stated that he stole the money from her budget, was a terrible business man, and untrustworthy. All of which ultimately impact his ability to continue to have a successful career and means to support himself and his family. Although, it may be in “bad taste” to ask a woman who has been potentially battered for evidence, the producers should have and hopefully so gained some evidence or that makes everything she stated solely accusations. This show knowingly supported her story line in full awareness that she had blogged about this incident including his name before they selected her for the show, with that being said and the ability to “google” in this day and age, I dont see this as being such a easy win on the producers behalf. Just my opinion..

So heres the thing. The producers ect. may not have not let his name be said on camera but with like someone said all the behind the scenes (aka real life) things going on in interviews,twitter beefs or whatever his name is being out there for something that may or may not happened and they gave her a platform to continue to tell her “story” and benefit financially from it as well while discrediting him and quite possibly damaging his family and business and or future business ventures so yes a lawsuit was in order (if he is telling the truth) (disclaimer: everything said from here on out is not implying that I dont believe K Michelles version on events but throwing out another option to think about ppl so spare me the save a hoe replies) Now, IF the cops were called for even a loud argument there would be some type of report made even if charges werent filed and no one arrested, Where’s that at? A lady commented earlier saying her husband hit her and that they cops came and said theres no proof. True indeed but I bet if need be you can pull up a report to response call at the very least maam so that is the so called “proof” that ppl keep saying they want to see and ppl you better trust and believe that if it existed in their case that it wouldve been dragged all through every blog, website and search engine proving either one of their claims. Also, I am so over women like k michelle and crew trying to be the “face of domestic violence” bullcrap. a man “allegedly” puts his hands on you once in the heat of an argument doesnt make you an ABUSED woman nor does it make him a wife beater. People like her and evelyn lozada actually disgust me with their carrying on because it is disrespectful and spits in the face of the women that really have been abused. Lastly, just because her story hasnt changed in all the years shes said it does not mean that it is true and also being that first and foremost this man is a businessman and in the public eye he would want to admit to any type of wrongdoing that would paint him in a negative light like that. come on now ppl, open your minds up.

I wish you and people who rush to form ignorant assumptions would actually take one more minute to fully form that thought. Do you really think successful executive producers would allow a personality on their show to spout off easily disproved lies? Come on now! That’s just bad for their bottom line. Easy lawsuit. They go so far as to blur name brands on soda cans and small logos on T-shirts and hats in interstitial shots ..do you really think they’d let K. Michelle ramble on with unsubstantiated allegations? And for you to claim with certainty how police would respond to a black couple in a verbal or physical disagreement, GTFOHWTBS. You are ignorant, pure and simple. Life doesn’t occur in exactly the manner you imagine. Read a book. Read a newspaper. Read anything so at some point so you can climb out of your little judgment hole of personal experiences and bullshit you read on blogs in order to fully grasp all sides of a situation.

Oooh (s)(h)(i)(t) just got real in the streets. Well, I guess the truth is finally going to come to light. I hope K. Michelle got some proof that she has been keeping in her back pocket. I think she told Rasheeda on one of those LAHH episodes that she could have went to the blogs with proof, but tried to take the high road. Either way, I hope that MempHITZ knows what he is doing.

Why is he suing the show and NOT k.michelle??? He needs to be sued for the Real Mistresses of ATL show im sure those ppl will feel slanderous comment coming for that show to for somebody that suppose to be happyly married him and Toya sure are focusing alot on lhhatl and kmichelle

Let’s all be serious. Yes, you do go after the one with the most money, however, do you honestly believe Viacom is about to pay him?! Bet money they are lawyered up to the max. And they are no fools. There is NO WAY they would o flet her ever say that mess out of her mouth without making damn sure that they did not have to pay a damn soul a settlement when the show was over. Do you all really believe they would of taken on a liability?! No no boop boop. The white people over at Viacom is not even trying to hear all that. Him, Toya, and Rasheeda are about to have several seats!

TOYA, this fool is running up a hefty tab on your expense.(Don’t act like u ain’t paying for everything) Your funds are likely depleting as I type this. Take heed and get out of there before he destroys everything you’ve built for yourself.

@The Realest. Exactly! The network has nothing to do with what comes out of her mouth. She never mentioned his name so somebody knows something because everyone knew without her speaking of him that it was him. He cant sue her for slander because its true. He cant say she’s been making attacks on him when he’s been tweeting insults and pictures back and forth to provoke her. Ugh! I’m over him, Toya and especially Rasheeda.

If her allegation are untrue VH1 gave her the platform for voicing untruth; and/or did they encourage her to infer that Memphitz abuse her to make her storyline interesting? For defamation not slander if he can prove that she made intentional false communication, either written or spoken, he has grounds for his lawsuit. Furthermore, has she harmed his reputation; decreased the respect, regard or confidence in which he has been held; or did she induce disparaging, hostile or disagreeable opinions or feelings against him? Based on the opinion on this site and others, she most definitely have.

-12Crazy Lady with 100 Cats Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 2:13 pm

Only K. Michelle, Memphitz and GOD know what happened where they were together but he has a right to sue. She basically slandered his name these past few weeks and VH1 didn’t edit anything out only because they wanted to bring in more viewers. Drama = Ratings to Mona Scott Young so I hope she’s prepared to pay him when they settle outta court. As for K. Michelle Im not saying I dont believe her story I just think that there are two sides yall all know that she is certified crazy and I can see her starting **** with him then him retaliating. She’s just too extra with it the whole story line was focused on him and her past and barely included anything about her future projects. This is gonna be interesting because at the end of the day K. Michelle is taking outta Mona and VH1’s pockets so they may just let her go.

First off, things are about to get super messy. I do believe Memphitz beat K. Michelle in the hotel that night after a heated argument. I do believe he took her money (prob took other monies as well and that maybe why Jive fired him). I don’t think it was $2 million tho…Something happened because K. Michelle went to Jive with some type of proof and was released from her contract with her masters. Jive didn’t want to be involved in that Tyler Perry drama LOL

I doubt Memphitz will win. If anything they probably cancel Toya show.

Memphitz needs to get a LIFE…the story that K. Michelle has been telling for 3 years now, this didnt just come up a week or even months ago!! Nigga cant find work, so he wants a payday and its not because of what K. Michelle is saying, she never once dropped his name…he made it know when he @ her on instagram and his “homie” Rasheeda and wifey Toya opened their mouths!! I look at it like this if it is true K. Michelle needs to air his ass out like some dirty laundry but if its not then crucify her!! But as the saying goes HIT DOG WILL HOLLER!!!

A Kimberly Michelle Pate is named on the lawsuit and I believe that is K.Michelle’s legal name. Why is everyone here insisting that she is not named on the lawsuit when in fact she is?…he could not sue the other sources without suing the horse in which the accusations came from…I really don’t care who is lying but obviously he has a reason to sue because the majority of comments here have him pegged as the bad guy who abused and misused a victim. If the accusations are not true the damage which has been done to his character cannot be erased. That alone is good enough reason to sue. Also, when you meet with your lawyers, they advise you on which way to go, I’m sure his lawyers would not have taken a dead case…this will be interesting to say the least. If anyone had something to gain from these accusations it would be K., she was given a platform to tell her story and was paid to do so, now Memphitz on the other hand is just reacting to said accusations…I’m sure if he did it, he would gracefully bow out. But people do the darnest things so…who you gonna believe? I believe they both did dirt!

This won’t go too far. NOTICE HOW HE’S SUING THE PRODUCERS AND NOT K. MICHELLE. THAT SHOULD TELL US ALL SOMETHING. IN AN INTERVIEW WITH A RADIO SHOW (its on youtube if you want to see) MEMPHITZ SAID THAT K. COULDNT SAY ANYTHING ON NATIONAL T.V. THAT WASN’T TRUE AND HE CALLED THEM BEFORE THE SHOW AIRED AND TOLD THEM NOT TO SAY HIS NAME,…..go watch the vid on youtube …Why would they let Kmichelle go without suing her for breech of contract from the record deal if he didn’t do it? EXACTLY

I hope K. Michelle really exposes him now because now HE is asking for it. This child has been telling her story for YEARS now and never once did she mention his name. But now he wants to sue?? I sense a very guilty conscience.
He has lawyers but I can almost guarantee that Viacom’s legal team is bigger and badder, so his team better come correct.

Me too! I don’t believe her story. It’s too much of an act. All that hoopin and hollering. If you watch Rihanna reaction vs. K.Michelle reaction it just don’t come off as authentic from K.Michelle. I do believe she is a fatal attraction that is just mad that Memphitz didn’t want her anymore.

And look at K.Michelle mouth and how she behaves. I don’t think she beat her ass like that. I think he may have restrained her or maybe pushed her and she’s exaggerating. This happened YEARS ago and she still dwelling on it for WHAT? Tell your story and MOVE ON

K is mad at memphitz for more than just beating her she claims he stole her money and has repeatedly disrespected her Chris was sorry is sorry and Rihanna forgave him if memphitz beat k. It’s like he doesn’t give a darn

No she’s not, but her reaction seems more real to me. She’s speaking out now (on a reality show at THAT *major side eye*) for what?? Tell you what’s the difference w/that too. W/Rihanna we saw pictures, police reports. NONE of us knows what actually happened while ya’ll just taking sides with K.Michelle is what I’m saying. If she got proof then she need to show it.

Him stealing her money and beating her ass is two totally different things!
There are women out here that are CRAZY and make false accusations on things ya’ll do know that right?

+22Nikki Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 1:42 pm

First of all, the only people that do know exactly what happened was K.Michelle and Memphitz. To say that you don’t believe her, yes that’s your opinion.. but to make comparison between her and Rihanna.. has no validation to your point.
Everyone reacts different to domestic violence. There are women whom left their abusive realtionship, whether it was 3 months or 3 years ago.. still hurt from it.

I’m sorry OOP, but you are a dang fool if you expect people to have the same reaction! K.Michelle’s one was televised! Just because K has a mouth on her doesn’t mean that no one can touch her! Sad to see how people are pushing her story down…she was beat, and no one can justify that…no one!

If everybody in the industry or that come across her is saying she is crazy and bipolar what ya’ll think?? I’m sorry where there is smoke there is FIRE. Ya’ll mark my words….

@oop&melody… But she ain even said the man name. A guilty pig gon sqeal & y he suing them & not her? She made these claims b4 the show so he needs to just stop b4 she drops that proof on us all & he gon really be a bloody fool.

She did say his name..maybe not on the first episode when she mentioned it, but shortly after in interviews. I’m not here to defend Memphitz but where are her “receipts” (as she likes to call out on other people) The man she described on the episode was definitely HIM and just because he noticed himself doesn’t mean he’s guilty.

@OMG she didn’t have to say his name people ALREADY knew who she was talking about. Period.

+9The Realest Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 2:00 pm

I dont understand how people can call a her crazy loud mouthed *****, and then turn around and not believe she could have been beat. Isn’ t that what usually happens to peolpe who talk alot of noise….someone finally shuts them up…not that I condone domestic violence. But just like she talked about rasheeda and she was reasy to hit her, why is it so hard to believe that he could have reacted the same way. Words can bring out the worst in a person, especially if you bruise a mnas pride and ego.

you know reading this thread just made me think of something. Even if he did it or not (really not the issue at this point, lets be real folks) you have to look at her and question her motives. If this happened years ago and you are looking forward to moving past it and moving forward with your “career” then why continue to tell this same story over and over again. Why even mention it??? (Remember you no more tear, no more drama and all that K??)Now I believe after watching the show you have suspect intentions as well maam. She came on the show with this story for drama plain and simple and all that “I was a bettered woman” mess is just for attention at this point. yall can miss me with the rest of that.

I think in her position, she HAD to tell what happened because she was blackballed & labelled crazy while he skipped on the next one with some $$$$. I was a fan of K Michelle after I saw her videos over 2 yrs ago, waited & waited for her album to drop then….nothing. I wondered what happened to her & why she was dropped from her label.

I think K acts out of pocket because she hasn’t dealt with her issues in a positive way but I do believe that that male laid hands on her. I hope that she can jump start her music career and get help so that she can put this behind her.

Bahahaha Reply:September 5th, 2012 at 9:46 am

And this is ok?? You see how K.Michelle couldn’t even sit and hold a real woman conversation without hitting low blows talking about she disrespected her husband and have bags under her eyes? What did that have to do with what they were talking about?? I wouldn’t be surprised if K.Michelle told Memphitz “That’s why your daddy got killed”. She talks wreckless. That’s no excuse to get beat but you gotta GIVE respect to GET it

-18Lovely1 Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 1:35 pm

I KNEW IT he been to quite BOOM I believe Kmichelle is bitter because Memphitz left her heart broken she still love this man….side eye to the abusive charges…. No I wasn’t there but I don’t believe her account of what happen she shook and got shookin lol she has a violent nature and still walk around talking about slapping Toya on sight…..yes Memphitz get them…..she even said that Toya wedding ring was brought with her money BITTER

I agree Shawn all the way we need proof so what even if she does not have a mark or scratch she only started coming out with these allegations w hen she found out that he was engaged to Toya and then when she found out they was married was the first time she started to say stuff about this. If you go to the police with text messages or even a fb threat you can still get a report and charges brought up. Before we start to say he did it we have to know the truth and everyone needs to stop going in on Rasheeda she is being something that many people dont know about these days and that is a real FRIEND!! So what if she never seen him get mad or hit Toya she never seen it so she is gonna stick up for her friend and K Michelle is broke so I would sue for money and take down the platform that she is on. Look at Chad Ocho he is now broke and Evelyn did an interview with no marks nothing and the police stated that because he was not bleeding they did not believe that she head butted him it was her word against his and her story has changed since the incident but we live in a world we are quick to throw judgement because she is a woman. I am a woman that have been abused and been in the hospital and let me tell you when I speak I have reports, pictures everything to be like BAM shut up haters…. Just saying……

This is all pretty messy. BUT like it was stated above K. Michelle never said his name on the show. As a matter of fact, she talked about him before the show, and he responded to the foolishness basically confirming that she was talking about him so can he really sue Mona and company? I’m not a legal expert, but for some reason, I don’t think this may get very far.

K. Michelle better pull out those text and such that she claims she has.

Yes he can sue Mona and the company because eventhough it was KMichelle who said these things, they are her platform for getting these allegations out. These allegations should have been edited or not aired if they/she didn’t have proof to back them up but they weren’t all for the sake of entertainment. This defamation of character may definitely cost Miss Mona a pretty penny.

If this is the case, then for every interview she does, he needs to sue the radio station, blog, and everywhere else she mentioned him, IF we are going to go off of the fact that he’s suing the show because they provided a platform for her to tell her story. Wouldnt radio stations and such be considered a platform as well?
Granted, I believe the only reason he’s suing the show and for the amount he wants is because there’s a chance he can get more from them, than from her, I still believe this is all b.s and as the old saying goes “a hit dog will holler”.
I don’t believe mempHITZ not one bit, and I hope they throw this out of court and tell him get his **** on

The radios and interviewers aren’t making money off of K.Michelle. The producers of L&HH are. I can’t wait until she has to proof all of these allegations. The producers should have investigated her claims, before they allowed her to use this as her ‘platform’.

+7B Reply:September 4th, 2012 at 2:34 pm

Ugh if their would be no radio if money was not being made!!!!
Radio makes money off of advertisement…DRAMA FROM GUESTS/FUNNY COMEDIAN = HIT SHOW = ADVERTISEMENT REVENUE!!!

BLOGS ALSO…THE MORE TRAFFIC/WE OPEN STORIES THE MORE ADVERTISEMENT REVENUE THEY GET ..DUHHHHHHH

I knew he was only waiting for a matter of time before he hit her ass with a lawsuit.
He was sitting back and waiting for this **** to be over before he went in on her ass. I’m surprise that Toya ain’t sue that hoe for threatening her. smdh this **** bout to get real messy real fast. In the words of K. Michelle don’t shake unless u wanna get shook… well boo boo it looks as if a earth quake is coming ur way.

im soo sick of these hood rat reality shows. This is teaching our youth that its okay to resort to violence if they “dont like that *****” or that they can make it in this world by sleeping with a man because he has money. I know its what brings ratings and unfortunetly its what america is so obsessed with. They need to quit portraying all minorites as ghetto, or “hustlin to make it”. What about all the people who actually go out and get degrees and are a positive contribution to society!……ugh okay done with my rant lol

if your letting your kids even watch these shows your a horrible parent and if you letting shows like this teach your kids about life instead of you…then your child already screwed!!!!! Stop letting shows like this teach your kids cut the tv off and TALK

I think that they should pay, because if she didn’t have any police reports or records that this was true then they should have edited it out or better yet, not made the mistake of saying his name ever!

The domestic violence against Chris Brown pretty much ruined his career whatever music he sells is fine, but he won’t get any endorsements! In fact, after that incident he was dropped from all of his endorsements and has never regained his popularity since. No one that’s in the entertainment industry wants to be branded a “chris brown type” especially if there wasn’t any arrest or records of such incidents. I’m on Memphitz side he deserves every penny of this law suit.

Exactly. Lol smh. It cracks me up how women don’t need to provide proof for domestic violence. Folks don’t realize how these women can manipulate the system, when they don’t need proof of serious allegations. I don’t give a d@#n how high the statistics are for women not reporting abuse, no woman should get a pass for destroying a man’s career & reputation based on statistics.

Do you honestly believe that Viacom would go and pick up a liaibility?! SO you think that they did not go and fact check?! They have been in the game wayyy too long to leave themselves open to a lawsuite. Mind you they are not even trying to settle out of court. Viacom is lawyered up heavy. Bet money neither him or Toya will see one red cent. Everyone saying that they want receipts from K, but shoot I want the ones from Him on what he spent all that money on. Hummm.

K. Michelle never once said his name. She only said his name in interviews after he started to blast her on twitter and interviews. I doubt he will win. I believe your innocent till proven guilty but the way he came off after the day of the show when she said she was abused made me think he was embarassed that it came out. I cant wait to see the results of this situation.

“K Michelle never once said his name. She only said his name in interviews…” did you proofread this?! Did she never say his name, or did she only say it interviews, because it can’t be both. Personally, IDGAF, but K Michelle, Viacom, VH1, and Mona Scott Young HAD to see this lawsuit coming.

I think that they should pay, because if she didn’t have any police reports or records that this was true then they should have edited it out or better yet, not made the mistake of saying his name ever!

The domestic violence against Chris Brown pretty much ruined his career whatever music he sells is fine, but he won’t get any endorsements! In fact, after that incident he was dropped from all of his endorsements and has never regained his popularity since.

They didn’t say his name ever. And you can’t really compare Memphitz to Chris Brown as far as his reputation being ruined, they are not on the same level. What’s he gonna lose, his hair gel endorsement? I think the lawsuit might be settled out of court and people are still going to see Memphitz as a bully who is money hungry and still trying to ruin K Michelle’s career.

my last comment on one of the other blogs concerning this was that if this was true he would have sued her or the show by now ..however i really do believe her; despite what anyone says no-one was actually there to witness what she went through. but i really think now would be the time to release the evidence she has |=

Finally!! I figured he would wait until the season wrapped to file against the show and K. Michelle. Mark my word. All the ladies feeling sorry for the crazy lady, will soon see what Mona isn’t showing. She is completey insane. I’m a great judge of character. Some on all believe anything on reality tv. I still stand with Rasheeda, I DONT BELIEVE THIS RATCHET QUEEN. She can blow though.. but she isn’t the type of person to move forward. All her good things end, with her cussing everyone out.

It would take a lot to make up such wild accusations. Either it’s true or she has something big against him that he should really be afraid of, when this gets out of hand. She might be brave but is she really that brave?

At the end of the reunion show, even after Raheeda tried to go at here in Part 1, K Michelle still had only good things to say about love including Rasheeda’s and Scrappy’s relationship. So she’s only ratched when she is foced to be. Team K MIchelle all day!!!

Either that or he well knows that the show broke some law and dragged him into something without his permission. I can see him winning on that basis if they didn’t have his consent and used his name to make the show interesting.

3 Sides to every story. His side, her side and the truth. I doubt he wins because his name was never mentioned on the show even though we all knew who she was talking about. He can’t sue the producers for stuff K.Michelle tweets either, so that will be thrown out in court. I knew it was going to come to this. LOL But he wants money? In order to win this he’ll have to prove he lost out on money because of what was said AND prove that they were specifically talking about him. That will be hard. Oh well though. I like K.Michelle but I don’t think she even has proof he whopped her ass. But if she does now would be a great time to provide that proof to her attorneys.

I believe K Michelle. Memphitz beat her ass and stole her money. I just wish she’d show those texts!! If she has proof, the time to show it is now. What she should have done is file charges on Memphitz’s azz in the first place. Then she’d be believed. Memphitz must be losing some work (money) because of all this that is why he sued. And K Michelle NEVER says his name on the show….that may work in her favor. We’ll see what happens….this is getting GOOD!!!

Exactly cuz I havent heard a thing he has produced … and how do we kno he aint whooping Toya butt… He is broke and I believe he did something to her, her story been the same even before he married Toya. He had the opportunity to act like a adult and clear it up and this Nigga said I made her!!!

+1Dontbelievethehype Reply:September 5th, 2012 at 10:49 am

Actually he made a couple of Lil Wayne songs and T-Pain songs and that is how him and Toya met to even begin with and yeah he has produce lots of hits thats why when she is throwing his name out there on twitter and other sites a lot of people are starting to make assumptions thats why if she has proof she needs to be front and show it she has been saying she has proof when him and Toya was going to get married and after they got married she is a woman scorned….

In legal terms he is not suing K Michelle because she doesn’t really have and coins. If he is suing a 1.00 for every 3 million views per episode that is way more coins than K Michelle could ever have. NO SHADE. He is smart but dumb at the same time. Viacom owns everything. So suing them could and most likely will have him and his wife blackballed from tv. BET VH1 etc… That could make him loose serious money in the long run, if he wins or looses. Suing K Michelle will just prove that innocent but will leave him broke. She aint got that Viacom money. I think this is a big mistake, because I seriously doubt that Mona Scott was that dumb of a business woman to but a story line on TV that she know could have backlash including a lawsuit without some sort of proof, truth or protection (lawyers). But, whatever I am here for the the (F) cery… Something tells me that the will get worse before it gets better though.

@ Chris I agree with you. There is no way Viacom and Mona’s production did not do their homework. When you are learning the media they teach you about slander and libel. I just can’t see him getting far with this lawsuit.

His name was never mentioned on the show,the only way we knew it was him was because HE responded!!!!!!Then you have Toya doing interviews and making pot shots on twitter,which added fuel to the fire! He should have just kept his mouth shut ! *SN I do believe K.M!!!

Sigh. If she has evidence that he did do all she is saying he did then it will stop his defamation suit. Why? Because then it will prove everything sje was saying is the truth. And if he really did it, then it is not defamation. It’s her saying facts. And really I don’t see him winning, because trust me Viacom are no fools and after it is all said and done, Viacom who own VH1, BET, MTV, and a whole host of other ****, will have Toy and Memphiz blackballed. ANd that means no more TV money. They better hope ppl start using hair gel again…IJS

There is a certain class of black women who are gossipy and messy that lack the ability to reason and use logic to decipher problems. They are a superficial bunch that believe anything that is “juicy” and take it as truth……..this is K. Michelle’s audience and key demographic. I hope he wins every penny!

his ass is probably gonna lose that battle. noone even knew k. micehelle was talking about him until he started talking that ‘i made u’ ****. dude your name was not mentioned once! **** outta here u put urself on blast, next time keep ur mouth shut!!! Now as far as the interviews and twitter and such, perhaps he can sue K. Michelle…. I am not legal expert #IJS.

Oh also I wonder why there wasnt a police report anywhere or photos or medical records. Then again maybe she hasnt released them and if this does actually make it to court those things may come out…. *pops popcorn awaiting the outcome*

He just tryin to save face.. Notice he’s not suing for her statements being false but the fact she said his name and let everyone know his business. Plus he’s not suing her but the show. Im sure toya put him up to this because they actually invited him on the reunion show and she said she told him not to do it..Why didnt he do this before she came own the show bc she been sayin this happened.. chile bye!

It doesn’t matter, she will be required to prove that what she is saying is true, on top of lthat before they gave her that platform to accuse him, they should have verified that it did indeed happen and they should have required her to show them whatever proof she had, so if she has proof then she will be forced to show it, if not he sued the people that can pay him, she does not have any money, so you go after the vehicle, he is a business man and trust me I am sure he has top notch lawyers, they know exactly what they are doing.

Good for him make her show her so called proof, if what she is saying is true and she supposedly have proof then let her show her hand. I love it, these people need to stop just crazily defaming folks just so they can come up. He called her bluff!!! now it’s her move, to release the so called evidence. BAM!!

How many women who get beat up by their boyfriends have the proof? Most of them hide it from their friends and family. You think she immediately took pictures of her bruises in case she got sued later? If anything there might be a police report or those text messages that she was talking about. She is not using this story to come up, she has the most talent out of everyone on the show.

What does her having talent have to do with anything? she is still not a household name, don’t be niave, she is the one that keeps claiming she has proof, so she should *** or get off the pot. PERIOD. If you have proof that he is a thief and an abuser then put it on the table, press charges, and get him off the street. I am sure the statute of limitations is not ended.

So, what else should women be allowed to get away w/? According to you, we should just do away w/ the entire judicial system simply because women are too afraid to report incidents? GTFOH! Maybe this should be a lesson to woman who are abused, to REPORT THE INCIDENTS. So that they can be taken seriously and the perpetrators can be imprisoned. Women need to be held accountable for their actions. They’re not children, they know right from wrong, and need to know that if someone puts their hands on you, that YOU NEED TO REPORT THE CRIME. Period. Stop making excuses for women that don’t report these cases.

“So, what else should women be allowed to get away w/? According to you, we should just do away w/ the entire judicial system simply because women are too afraid to report incidents?”

Where did I say that? I said a lot of women are not going to have proof. The police and prosecutors won’t take women seriously or go forward with the case if there is not enough proof. Or they do prosecute the case and its a he said/she said thing and the abuser gets off free. Okay so yes there are some women who make up stories like this because people will believe them without any proof, but K. Michelle’s story has been the same for years and Memphitz has responded like someone who is guilty.

@ Nikki

You imply that when you say battered women don’t report their crimes. Your essentially saying that her story holds weight, or should be taken seriously, when there’s nothing to substantiate hers/or anyone that doesn’t report abuse. This mindset is mind boggling to me, that so many women are giving logic & facts a back seat to, emotional thinking. This type of thinking sets womens right back 100 years lol smh

So he waits til the show is off n sues NOT K michelle actually doin the talkn but the show n its producers? Sounds calculated n money driven. She never said his name n has been consistent with her story so he knows he has no basis gettin at her directly. At least the truth will come out.

I am SO happy that Mona Scott-Young is being sued. I hope Memphitz wins and takes most of her money. She is so arrogant and distasteful; she knows what she’s doing by exploiting the African American community and she should be ashamed of herself. So I back Memphitz all the way; hit her where it REALLY hurts: her pocketbook.

What kinda person would put ALL that energy into a lie like that tho?? I believe K. Michelle, she displayed some real emotion. Memphitz needs to get over himself. He’s going to the EXTREME with this lawsuit! What money and power can afford you to do SMH. I truly believe he beat her, the denial is sickening.

He looks like a low self-esteem, dark skinned dude with anger management issues. Class act for sure, sues a woman and beats on her. If he was such a good guy, her “false” claims would mean nothing because his character all these years would stand up way taller than anything she had or has to say. It’s obvious he’s worried for a reason… Truth always comes to light

No offense, but I would just like to point out that this is an example of how his character has been defamed from these allegations. Unless you know him personally, then I apologize. However if you do not, then you definitely see how his suit makes complete sense. We’re not arguing whether or not he abused her or stole her money. We’re arguing whether this shows portrayal completed harm to his character.. I believe your comment displays the latter

Oh please he made it soooo obvious when he sent that tweet about being her creator . If she was lying then Jive records would have been on her tail when she mentioned the scenario behind her being release from her deal

Well there it is I cant wait to this play out K. Michelle better start putting that proof she claim she got out to shut all this **** down and if it was true I would be putting in a counter claim for whatever I can I really hope this case doesn’t get to ugly though because they all have children and I would hate for them to one day see this madness played out for the world to see.

Sad situation but I don’t believe she is lying crazy or not. Many women process it differently. You can’t say just because she is wild, he didn’t hit her but this case won’t stand. What does he do again? I mean where will all these people be in 5yrs? All “beaters” don’t hit all women. They know who to play with. Toya is too well known for that. I feel sorry for her though because if he did what would she do? She’s married now….so…I mean how embarrising. Regardless, something shady went down. He look like he would try to “get over” on someone who he felt wasn’t worth it. just my opinion….poor Toya. Someone outside the industry would have been ideal for her.

I’m really trying to understand how 1) he’s suing the network and the show when she never mentioned his name on either and 2) he’s suing period considering his name didn’t come out of anyone’s mouth until he started commenting on it all over the place. I believe K. Michelle and I think he might think all evidence is gone by now and he can flex his muscles. But K. Michelle seems to me like the type of women who wouldn’t want to sling his name through the mud but will now that he couldn’t just be quiet. I feel like things are about to get bad for Memphitz…

LMFAOOOO IS THIS STUPID ASS NIGGA SERIOUS **** OUTTA HERE VIACOM AND VH1 IS BIG COMPANYS AND HIS MONEY AINT EVEN LONG ENOUGH TO PLAY BALL WITH THEM SO HE NEEDS TO SIT HIS ASS ALL THE WAY DOWN AND SHE NEVER SAID HIS NAME ONCE WHILE AIRING SO POOF THERES NO CASE LOL CASE DENIED THE JUDGE AND VIACOM,VH1 ETC….. GONE LAUGH AT HIS SILLY ASS TOYA YOU BETTER GET YO HUSBAND BEFORE HE GO ALL THE WAY BROKE TRYNA PLAY WITH THE BIG BOYS. SMFH THIS NIGGA IS REALLY INSANE LOL, AND THE FOOL OF THE YR AWARD GOES TO STUPID ASS MEMPHITZ

He is an ediot. When her 1st episode aired she never said his name. HE is the one who came on twitter (world wide web social media) all the way from Paris… and pretty much held up his hand and said “It’s me”… with the whole I made you and bought your booty insults. If he had ignored it..then I believe it would’ve died down and Toya would not now be pressuring him to prove himself. This pressure has Toya written all over it because she cannot sleep at night with both eye closed. One will always be openned…

If he just hit her one time, then that can be used as domestic violence.. I think he doesn’t see that episode in the hotel when the police had to come, was due to a violent attached on K Michelle. She was abused no doubt about that, he needs to face the fact of what went down that day.

I think he thinks at least trying to sue proves his innocence.
I don’t believe this will even be heard in court…..I wonder if it is thrown out, these people did not provide her a platform, she’d been speaking about this for years.
I don’t think there is any basis for his claims and at the very LEAST Viacom’s lawyers will have this dismissed, promptly.

Not so fast, if you remember they said on the show they made Joselyn take a pregnancy test before they allowed her to go on tape and say she was pregnant, so the same way that they validated her accusations of being pregnant by Stevie J, they should have validated K Michelle’s claims, especially since she claimed on THEIR show to have had proof, they should have made her validate that before allowing her to use their show as a platform, it is the fiduciary responsibility of the producer and their legal team to validate these things, or people can go on a show and make any type of insane claim.

Actually, it doesn’t mean the producers haven’t seen the proof just because we, the audience, didn’t see the proof. Like you said they had to validate Joseline’s story, they very well may have done the same for K. Michelle

Hence, the lawsuit, it can all be placed on the table and they will have to prove that they did their due diligence when it comes to her story. So if they did what they were supposed to do, they have nothing to worry about, if they did not, they are liable.

THIS NEGRO is DUMB! Why didn’t he pull a Gag order on K. Michele he knew she was going to be on the show. They’ve been taping since the beginning of the first episode. He had plenty of time to pull a gag order. I’m sure that would have kept the story for getting out.. Now he wants to sue. Negro Please. Go have a seat in back of Stevie J’s bus.

But most people have said no one knew who was behind her accusations until he said something over twitter, so actually he told on himself… I could be wrong because I never knew this until now from reading everyone’s statements.

If he know he didn’t do it, then why does he care so much?! This is another sign of guilt. SMH! He’s not going to win anyway. K. Michelle never said his name on the show. Therefore, he has no reason to sue them. They’re going to dismiss that whole thing.

How is this a sign of guilt? Everyone should clear their name of these type of things, it’s not right to just sit back and let folks do this to you and not act, it allows them to continue to come after you. If you are innocent of a charge you should ALWAYS defend yourself. We all see what happened to Michael Jackson when he settled with thugs, everyone else started coming because they knew they had an easy mark. I actually see this as a sign of his innocence that he is willing to go to court over it and force the issue.

It is a sign of guilt, because she NEVER said his name! If K. Michelle would’ve said his name on the show, and he knew she was lying, then he could sue her for defamation of character. But she did not mention his name once.

That’s true she never mentions him by name. Memphitz is the one who went on Twitter shortyly after the show began and was talking about he made K Michelle and got her the new teeth, azz and breasts. So he is basically admitting and validating that it IS him she is speaking about. I see this getting tossed out of court. He & his lawyer were smart to wait til the show wrapped completely, but by Memphitz suing VH1, he’s ruining him & Toya’s chances for getting another show (and u KNOW they want one, what else they gonna do??) on BET…VIACOM owns both……so he’s smart and dumb at the same damn time.

Memphitz isn’t even trying to prove his innocence. He’s just doing stuff to make himself look even more guilty. He told K. Michelle “I made you” on Twitter after the first episode aired. She never even said his name. If he wanted to look innocent, then he should’ve simply left it alone. Even if he is innocent, he made himself look like an asshole.

Accusing someone of the things she has said he did can be very damaging to his career, whatever is left of it. It can destroy business and personal relationships left intact after the initial incident occurred. I don’t know if she is lying but I dont know one women who said a man hit her who came out afterwards and admitted she was lying. No, I know of plenty exaggerations of the abuse. “he knocked me out” when it was really a equally physical attack on both parts. I dont know, but I do understand him wanting to clear his name IF the incident didnt occur or if she is exaggerating her injuries to make her story more compelling.

Y’all dumb he not suing her because she broke he suing just who he need to sue Mona & Vh1 his Lawyers know what they doing he will WIN this watch…..I never believed her story as gospel truth no way she still love this man and is very bitter….. Ok Toya & Memphiz be careful might come home with a pet cooking on the stove……..Fatal Attraction

I believe K. Michelle but I’m not so sure she really does still have the proof as she stated to Rashida in one of the LHHA episodes. K. Michelle is so volatile & easily angered & ready to retaliate all the time that I think she would have been revealed her proof, especially after Memphitz “I made you” comment if she still had it. I hope I’m wrong though.

If her evidence was taken with a cell phone, those things are so temperamental that it could have purged out of her phone or got deleted on a factory reset or something. I hope she was able to electronically back up her evidence as an alternate resource if something did happen to it. I just don’t see her sitting on such evidence given her type of personality, but I do believe her. I hope she has something to help with this lawsuit.

Seems lika a cry for some financial help to me. Especially since it seems like Toya is the only one bringing home any checks. Was wondering when that would come to light. Wonder how all this would pan out.

Ok, he sues…but people already know who she is. They know who he is. And she has been telling the same story about him for years now. If he wanted to do something, he would sue K. Michelle for defamation of character and try to get something much like a gag order to keep her from telling ‘lies’ about him in the future. If it was about his slandered name, he should be trying to clear it. But for him to directly sue her means that the truth will have to come out. All the proof, character statements, etc. Either he has something to hide, or he cares about money much more than his reputation being actually cleared.

And K. Michelle needs to stop it already. No one is saying that she can’t share her story, but she is doing way more than that now. She is definitely trying to capitalize off of whatever happened between the two of them. She needs to move on from it and grow. She has said her piece over and over. And one thing about it, if he is really the abuser that she says he is, that mess is going to come out eventually.

She never said his name on the show or anything so why is he suing them??? If he has a beef and wants to sue then why not her directly??? Something just dont seem right here. If she has been saying that he abused her for years then why sue now???

As has been stated before; the hit dog done hollered. He was ‘alluded’ to because other folks knew who she was speaking of but she never called him out by explicitly by name. Dawg just shot his own self in the foot. Rasheeda better be careful about who she refers to as her friends and all. I wonder what she’s going to say when Toya comes to her holding her eye.

I’m sure Mona and nem put a lil money back; surely they saw this day coming. They will throw him a little “chump” change (no pun intended) and they will settle out of court for pennies on the dollar. This will not go to Trial.

this damn dummy! he not gonna get a dime. not only that it’s not gonna be a good look for him once it backfires in his face and I promise u it will. he ****** up his money as well as his wife money. suing for what? cause you beat the girl @ss and she told everybody? Notice he never said he suing her because she lied on him. his @ss is gonna be FINISHED after this. dumbass!

IF IT IS TRUE!!!!!!! NIGGA YOU NEED TO BE IN JAIL!!!!!! THERE ARE SO MUCH MEN THAT PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY ABUSE!!!!!! IS NOT ACCEPTABLE PERIOD AND 99.9% OF THE TIME BLACK ARE ABUSIVE IN THE RELATIONSHIP!!!!!! NOT BECAUSE HE DON’T ABUSE HE’S NEW WIFE THAT THOSE NOT MEAN HE’S NOT ABUSIVE PERSON!!!!!! LIFE AND PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE……………

LMFAO BUT HE’S NOT SUING K MICHELLE. IF YALL DON’T SEE THAT AS PROOF THAT HE TRULY DID BEAT HER ASS & WAS TOLD TO LEAVE OLE GIRL ALONE THEN ME & FRANK OCEAN HAVE A BEACH HOUSE TO SELL YOU IN IDAHO.

AND ANOTHER THING….I’M DONE WITH THIS BIASED JOURNALISM. WHEN YOU WRITE A STORY UP PLEASE KEEP YOUR OWN OPINIONS OUT OF IT BITCHIE STAFF & NECOLE. WE SEE THE SUBLIMINAL SIDE TAKING THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I dont condone DV AT ALL. I was a victim myself & went to court to press charges & I was amazed at how many WOMEN black, white, hispanic ect were dropping the charges left and right. I didnt. I got a restraining order and all. BUT I just had a question if K. Michelle’s accusations were false why would her record lable let her out of a mult-million dollar deal. They gave her the rights & maseters to her music (where they do that at???) if she didnt have SOME form of proof. IJS can someone help me out….

Because K is CrazyasHell. Jeff Robinson said, NO ONE wants to work with her and people WARNED him about her. She even said how she stormed into the record label knocking over things. Hell I would have let her out of her contract too. Who wants to work with someone like that.

Wth is this guy thinkin going up against Viacom. they gone chew his black woman beatin azz up and spit him out. this chit gonna be opened and closed. what an idiot. guess he had to take some sort of action just to make it appear as tho he innocent. well I aint buying it.

The truth should come out at the end of the lawsuit so I won’t even comment on that but “assasination of character” really? You produced and are trying to get “Real Mistreses of ATL” on TV. You assasinated your own character with that one LOL!!!

Wow!! it is extremely frustrating to read these comments, I do not know if it is the educational system or just that people really don’t know about their legal rights, either way it is sad, and actually even more reason for him to file suit because K Michelle is speaking to an audience of people who has no clue about the legal system and how it works therefore she is able to influence their opinion based in inference and unsubstantiated accusations. This is how it works, she may not have called his name but it was inferred based on the fact that he was her manager at the time and that is easily accessible by the public, second, she is suing the network because they vet the storylines, even though it is a reality show, they still have to vet what will be said, as in the instance of Jocyelyn and her pregnancy as someone mentioned above. Third, K Michelle clearly stated that she has proof of her accusations which means that she has now had the floor and she has been able to influence others into thinking that he is an abuser and she has proof. K Michelle is now forced to submit this proof to the network if they were negligent in having her do so before, and if they did not vet her story properly, they were the vehicle that allowed her to make that claim to millions so they are responsible. Yes K Michelle may have said it on twitter or elsewhere before but now she has said it on television to a large viewership. Regardless of where he is in his career now, there is always the possibility of work with another label, and this could hinder his chances, she did not only accuse him of abuse but she also accused him of stealing from her, those hare heavy accusations that should be handled as such. Defamation has become a habitual thing with celebrities and people feel that because they do not respond it is ok to continue to do it, I think if more celebs would come forward and start suing whether it’s your regular every day person or industry people that accuse them of things or smear their names with lies and innuendos, it would put a stop to it, these folks have kids and parents and grandparents that they have to answer too, so it is not fair of us to ask them to stay quiet just because they choose to be in the limelight, at the end of the day they are human beings like everyone else.

Either way, he will have to prove that she is not telling the truth. The case will be he said she said which in those cases speaks more towards the person’s character. Him being so angry towards her will only hurt his case bc it makes his personality appear to be bullying and that is the very thing he is being sued for. At the end of the day at this point no one knows who is telling the truth so it has to be handled in court. But to put any fault on K Michelle without knowing is dumb on your fault

Spoken like some one who has common sense…more like insight in the CJS!!! He has every right to sue them ***IF*** its false. We shall see let the courts handle this…not public prospective, in this case the chips is in HIS favor because like sooo many people posting (including myself) people already formulated thier opinion of Memphitz

Welp…since Kmichelle had been running her mouf about this DV issue…before she was on the show… this according to Toya and her husband n the rest of them.. Memphitz should have used Toya’s money and filed gag order or what I call a Dwight Howard….to have Kmichelle not mention his name…mention the fight, money, abuse, etc…

Why gag her when he can punish her?? Lol, you dont get to say whatever you like about someone just for kicks. It’s about to get real for her. She can even lose that Love and Hiphop gig. Lying has conscequences

@Melissa I agree with you except about celebs suing because they’re public figures so it comes with the territory that’s why there are tabloids and blogs that can throw celebs through the dirt. Also Memphitz would have to prove malice (someone stated above) VH1 didn’t have malicious intent especially since Mona invited him to come and share his side

I don’t think its so her allegations of abuse that have him suing, but her allegations that he stole money from her label contract. That is a very serious allegations that will effect his job b/c who is going to want to work with someone that is accused of stealing money from artists. So she may not have proof of the abuse (which honestly I do not feels that she needs) but she should have proof of stolen money.

Oh yeah, he did admit to “restraining her” but claimed she was the agressor so they physically fought at some point in their relationship. Now who really was the agressor is unknown but he put his hands on her in some way.

He did lose his job!! Why??? WE need to know if it was for stealing that guap. If it was, Viacom either has this information OR will subpeona to get it!!!! Im pretty sure whatever company he was involved with does not want any part of this mess!!!

I feel like he is looking guilier by the day. If you did not do it, why would you even shed light into the fact that she was talking about you on the show. You brought the negative attention on yourself by affirming to all viewers that you were the alleged assailaint. Suing Mona won’t do anything bc this case would first have to disprove that you did it. Therefore the burden of proof is on him to show that he didnt do it rather than her proving that he did. That is an uphill battle considering the time of the event.

No man wants to admit he beat a woman. Memphitz may or may not have beat KMichelle. Memphitz is hoping that Viacom & others will settle out of court with him for a large sum without even going to court. If anything, KMichelle ought to sue him for her $$$ he took. Rasheeda, Toya and others who were not there, need to take a seat talking about it didn’t happen. Y’all don’t know, it may have happened just like KMichelle is saying.

Atlanta based Attorney Alcide L. Honoré, Esq. maintains that, “even the most ridiculous statements when repeated frequently become true in the minds of many. Ms. Pate’s preposterous claims, which include allegations that Mr. Wright mismanaged funds and caused her career to ‘flop’, have been adopted as truth by many followers of the popular VH-1 reality series.”

I don’t know about k.michelle,i think there’s some holes in her story.Who in the hell sits on “proof” but don’t bring it out? That’s like saying i got a ferrari,but you see me driving a nissan maxima.If memphitz really did what she said,he wouldn’t be trying to sue,he would be on his best behavior,cause information like that can be damaging.And it doesn’t matter if K said his name or not,cause all memphitz have to do is relate to what she’s been saying on the interviews, to what she’s been saying on LAHH.

K. Michelle was signed to Wright’s label, Hitz Committee Ent./Jive Records. She says, one night the two got into an argument that turned into a physical fight. The singer says she was smothered by Wright and that he dragged her across the room floor leaving her with carpet burns, scars and bruises on her body.

“K. Michelle was signed to Wright’s label, Hitz Committee Ent./Jive Records. She says, one night the two got into an argument that turned into a physical fight.

a HIT dog will HOLLA…….KMichelle never said who hit her on TV……then memphitz blasted himself out on twitter after that epsiode, with his I MADE YOU comment. then that when Kmichelle went hard on twitter…..so he need to be mad at himself.

He says that the show caused stress for him and there family…ok…so posting pics and words of happyness dont look stressful to me…words of encouragement and poems and all the love pics..lololol…yeah right straight bull…memphitz is cool and the fam im sure is straight…looking for more money thats all…i believed her from jump just hope she can back it up…

Why isnt K. involved in the lawsuit and I dont wanna hear the argument she doesnt have much versus Viacom, if your getting slandered you get everyone including HELLO the accuser. Also Mona gave MempFists a chance to come on a refute the allegations and didnt take it. If your rep is that harmed you go in front of all and refute them right in front of your accuser. Another issue is is this doofus forgetting he,his wife and her bird friends is what outted him. MempFists first response after weeks of silence was tweeting a picture of pinocchio stating he classic woman beater lingo “I made you and paid for all your assets”. Yeah he was really concered about the harm it did to his family so much he allowed his wife and her chriping friends to confront K while he sat back like he a boss. Also you might as well sue Rasheeda cuz it was she who chirped that was a her close friend husband. Lastly dude need to remember he is suing Viacom communications not GET YO LIFE Communications, they play by a different standard altogether.

Something was up because K. got out of her deal with all her music rights and the like and usually to get out of a record company deal you gotta give up at 16 pints of blood, a lock of hair, and at least 2 future offspring and they still keep all your music rights lol. MempFists saw the ratings for this show and wants some ducets because if he’s suing VH1 and Mona for giving K. and outlet hell sue all the blogs and radio stations she was on too telling her story

Wait…so he’s requesting compensatory and punitive damages?! All for alleged libel and slander.

Hmmm… this doesn’t sit well with me. He could have easily filed a cease and desist against K. Michelle but, to wait until the entire season wrapped and then think up a cleaver way to incur compensatory damages is unsettling.

I doubt a civil judge will allow such a remedy. Tarnishing a limited-person public figures image is reprehensible but I don’t think to that degree.

If these allegations per Memphitz are false, I agree, why not file a cease and desist against K Michelle, who never mentioned his name on the show. If K Michelle was lying, why not sue her for slander? He’s just trying to make a big payday from the production companies, which I agree isnt going to happen, this is a “reality show”, not “scripted” so whatever is said is said. Go sue K. Michelle for what she has and may never have if these allegations are false. This isnt even about his name, its about the money and yes he’s attempting to take the production company to the bank, so he can spend all there money like he did K Michelle.

The problem with people saying she never said his name on the show is that she has said it in interviews, beefed with his wife on twitter and mentioned it in interviews. So, even though she never revealed ON THE SHOW who she was talking about, she did imply that it was him outside of it. Once she started doing that, mona scott and the executives at viacom should have taken issue with it and had her publicist step in whenever questions came up about the incident. Unfortunately, she doesn’t have much appeal outside that store.

I work in Television! Bottom Line: VIACOM IS LAWYERED UP! Trust me they already did all their research on K Michelle’s allegations. They would not have allowed the story line to be told on the show if they thought for one second they would lose a lawsuit. I believe Memphitz probably went for a settlement with them first and they refused. He WON’T WIN! keep it moving Memphitz. My Opinion: I believe their is truth in her story.

Yes you work in TV not a Law office. He would have to had filed a lawsuit for them to settle which would be out there for everybody to see like this one. The only thing you do with a tv is pushing buttons on the remote. Shutup

But will u win????
OR are you counting on pushing them into a corner with the bad publicity and forcing them into a settlement….
OR are you dumb by biting the hand that feeds you UMMM subsidiary BET ???

Thank you she MENTIONED his NAME everywhere else and it is not right he need too do whatever he has to do. KMICHELLE did not have a STORY LINE MEMPHITZ was her meal TICKET it’s not RIGHT!!!!!!!! KARMA will come back to her FOUL MOUTH A##…

I think a lot of people comments is stupid as **** she keep sayin she got text messages and all that but she not gone let them out if that was the case she should not have said nothing at all. And just because yall dont see that girl name in this lawsuit dont mean he didnt do one for her either

Some of you guys are saying that he’s not suing K.Michelle. However, it depends on what blog you’re reading. Because, before I read it here. I read it somewhere else and her name did come up.He wouldn’t have a case if he wasn’t suing her. Im not a lawyer. But, I do think it’s speculation if she didnt say his name but gave out hints. Hell had we not heard about this before we wouldnt no who she was talking about. And she really messed up when she on the interviews and twitter rants. So, Slander yeah he got her on that. Idk about the other stuff cause she didnt mention his name.

The problem is that the show allowed K Michelle to build an entire story line behind a supposed altercation that happened 5-6 years ago and speak on it as if it was fact and as if the alleged incident had just taken place. The show did no investigation into these allegations and I m sure they were well aware of who K Michelle was referring to. K Michelle did not come on Love & Hip Hop to bring awareness to domestic abuse nor to promote her failed and stalled singing career she came on tv to publicly humiliate the man that she loved and lost and to run his name in the ground. She seems to be bitter and hurt that she is not with him as she refers to him as the love of her life although they were only together for 6 months. Since their breakup at least 95% or more of the songs that she has written has been about loving him and losing him and wishing that they were still together. It’s sad that she didn’t use her platform to promote her career. No one was in that room the day this 1 ALLEGED INCIDENT happened so please stop referring to this man as an abuser until facts come out (like the supposed pictures and text messages that she has yet to produce that she still claims to have). Does it not seem crazy that 6 years later this woman is still fixated on him, still talks about their relationship in the present tense). Even if you don’t question the incident you should be questioning her motives. If she has all of this evidence now would be the time to release it….. right. I’m sure that we have all been victims of false slander so be a bit slower to judgment on what you’ve heard and not what you’ve seen with your own eyes

everyone is to invested and worried about this show see how many comments this got can’t believe people watch dumbs’t like this. This blog is full of people who watched Flavor of love and I love New York and called into directv when they lost VH1. lol if y’all w2ere as worried about the economy as ya’ll are te lives of k. Michelle, toya, and Memphitz maybe it would be better

I think what Memphitz is really trying to acomplish by suing is, forcing K-Michelle to bring out the evidence she claims she has, I mean why not, if he knows he’s telling the truth that she made this all up, then he knows there is no evidence, and after watching her interview on the breakfast club, I’m like Rasheeda, your alligations sounds a little shady!! First she said he beat her ass, then when Charlamaighn or how ever you spell his name, asked her what exactly did he do to her, she said, well he put a pillow over my face and was smothering me, and he threw a water bottle at me, well then K michelle, stop sending out mixed messages, beating your ass and trying to smother you are two different things, why didn’t you just say that in the first place.

Hm, so I has been nearly 3 weeks I’d come on this site laugh my ass of6, agree and disagree without even being tempted to comment on ***! But today I had to say something. I don’t give a damn about the guy suing a company or the woman claiming stuff, as everybody got the right to do as they wish. One advice that I have for K. Michelle is to show proof! The way she be shouting, screaming and crying about this alleged abusive only makes it logic that if she really had those text messages or whatever, she would have shown it long time ago. Or perhaps, is she preparing a big plan?As victim of abuse, by two different men, not only did I have physical evidence to show, at least I made phone calls to the police which is proof enough (especially in that industry where anything is made a big deal). One happened in Europe and another in Africa, even tho I gave up on persecuting those men (cause I forgave them and moved on), there is a record! A record implying that I made a report about some abuse. I feel like the mature thing to do is cut your loses and move on, as hard as it may seems (sometimes only time may allow that); be mature enough to put things behind you. If you can’t, and have to be killing someone’s character and have to be screaming about it TO THE WORLD, make sure you can back up your claims (cause the world is a tougher JURY). Cause when u fail to prove sh***, but still screaming and crying…you will be seen as the weaker one, people will start doubting your story, that very painful thing you said went thru and impacted your life… And as for the guy, I can understand where he is coming from: guilty or not, he is being killed publicly: something needs to be done unless he don’t care about his work and family. People asking why he attacks the company? Well cause if he succeed, he is indirectly attacking K.Michelle would will feel the consequences of her actions and subsequently send a message across. People wondering about the millions he is asking? Is anyone there not after the money?? Even K? Please I beg!

@ CVM, Great response! Sorry you had to eperience DV but happy to hear that you learned from your situations and moved on.

Yes, K Michelle is getting paid but sadly, she is being used like many others. The focus of these shows is DRAMA for ratings. All this about telling stories, women empowerment is straight up BULL. The more drama the better. Many people found out about K Michelle because of this show. I heard about K over two years ago when she was touring with R Kelly. I thought she was going to use this platform to promote her music. It’s sad because Mona seems to select the cast due to the drama going on in their lives, which encourages more drama, rating, profit…. To sum this all up, did K learn or gain anything? Was it therapeutic or helpful in anyway exposing Memphitz? Did it better her life and enabled her to move forward with her life. Why didn’t she expose her situation with DV in its entirety?

@MELISSA, your response is probably one of the best that I’ve read. Reading these reponses is validation alone why Memphitz should sue. Prior to the K Michelle’s allegation, many of you had nothing bad to say at Memphitz. Now, 90% of you are totally against him WITHOUT ANY PROOF!!! K Michelle spent the entire season alleging that he abused her, stole her money, was untrustworthy while claiming she had proof but didn’t provide any. Her allegations are detrimental and can impact his career in a major way. Public opinion seems to have declared him guilty without any evidence. I don’t blame this dude, I would sue also.

Why are so many of you trying to justify or determine the outcome of the lawsuit solely because she didn’t mention his name on the show? Even if he didn’t go on twitter, the millions that tuned in could have easily accessed the information and found out exactly who she was accusing. On the show, didn’t she say that the abuser was by her former manager? If this was your everyday Joe Blow, would he have been exposed? Would she have been casted? I think she wanted to expose Memphitz. He isn’t the only alleged abuser but I guess there wasn’t any reason to speak on the other. She had a platform to showcase her musical abilites but how many times did she sing? How much time was given to promote her music? Viacom/Mona are getting richer using people to act a azz, promoting BS while depicting negative images of Blacks.

To all of you thinking that Viacom is TOO BIG, POWERFUL & WEALTHY for someone to take on, don’t kid yourselves. I guess they will remain as such with people like you, afraid of a challenge. It goes both ways, You think that Viacom is too smart to allow K Michelle this platform without proof, checking the allegations and all the legalities out before the show aired. I don’t see Memphitz as the most intelligent but I doubt if he and attorneys would take on Viacom if they thought they had no chance of winning.

If it appears that I’ve taken Memphitz side, you’re WRONG! I do think that K Michelle has deflamed his character though. Abuse is abuse but I don’t consider it as an abusive situation when both parties are fighting. He may have defended himself or hit her but I doubt if he’s your every day abuser. A REAL abuser will beat your ass just because. You don’t have to do, say anything, provoke, initiate…. Although K Michelle seems to be EXTRA, loud and can get down right IGNORANT, it doesn’t excuse being abused. This probably wasn’t their first VERBAL altercation and she thought she could get by with getting physical. He probably got fed up trying to restrain her and beat her azz. The laws have changed, become stricter and people are now taking DV more seriously. My man has never hit me but instead, pushed me away because I was trying to fight him. Some females hit but don’t like/expect to be hit back. When we do, it’s abuse. I’m not down playing DV because many women are in actual ABUSIVE situations. Memphitz attacking and beating K Michelle azz for the hell of it or because today wasn’t a good day, I really don’t see. I could be wrong though. I’m anxoius to see how this plays out.

Like i said before…….He still needs more people…She never said his name or alluded to his identity in any way HE initiated all the antics that took place off the show by denying the accusations before he was accused. So where is his case?

And 2)This information has been floating in the industry for the last 3 years. Why file a lawsuit now? If she’s been defaming your character why wait 3 years to respond Mickey?

3)Mickey know he aint lost ****, not one dollar. Toya give him an allowance from wayne child support check. Toya only got a few more years to collect child support, memph looking for a new come up.hahahahahha (I kid, I kid *not really*)

Mona went to great lengths to make sure J. Hernandez’s pregnancy was legit before she allowed that story line to be filmed and aired. I’m more than sure that this woman felt like she had more than enough proof to even let K.Michelle imply that such situation had happened at the hands of her ex.
(Not saying his name.I don’t want to get sued!)

@Not Giving Up The Throne, No…they just told her not to mention his name, and she didn’t on the show, but just like they put in there contracts, that the cast members can’t talk about the shows that havn’t been aired yet during interviews, they should have told K. Michelle’s ass not to mention Memphiz name during interviews that are related to the show, He just might get a big pay check, I don’t think it’s far fetch.

Now he wants to protect his “reputation,” well it’s about DAMN time!!!!!!!!!!! However, why sue LHHATL? The show didn’t cast a dark cloud on your image, K. Michelle did! And if what K. Michelle said is “untrue,” then why did you wait until LHHATL ended before you decided to take action? Hell, if it were me, the moment she started defaming my character, I would have sued her ass RIGHT THEN AND THERE!!!!!!!!!! Memphitz get it together, because you can’t have it both ways (staying silent and ignoring the allegations vs coming out swinging with a lawsuit that doesn’t even include K. Michelle, and she’s the one you allegedly claim is lying)!!!!!!!

I see a couple of people in this group with common sense… please dont allow ANY of the rest to EVER defend you…. In a court of law KM will have to prove what Memphitz did to her in a defamation lawsuit..or suffer the consequences…the law is not the same in Civil court as it is in Criminal court.. you only have to have a small degree of proof to win in Civil court.. Its only who appears more right… and Im sure police reports will be pulled… you all really believe big business cant be taken down.. THINK AGAIN! Viacom is known for their antics… anything to gain attention= ratings… they are NOTHING more than the National Enquirer on TV and we know how many times they have been sued… attempting to hang on by a thread… Common sense.. if someone beat a woman senseless police had to be called she was beat up ect.. they didnt think twice at arresting CB azz you think they cared who Memphitz was.. Please.. sorry.. what that sister is selling Im not buying..

I understand what K. MIchelle is going through. I was a victim of DV myself. He said the I’m sorry, I’ll never do it again lines I’m sure. Now he is telling the entire world that he did have something to do with the allegations or else he would not be trying to file a law suite. He probably don’t want his wife to know the monster that lives in her home. You can’t tell by looking at a person whether or not they are capable of doing such a thing. And no they don’t want their friends and family to know. He shattered his own image and rep.

In all cases, there IS NOT proof and if this was in the past I probably wouldn’t doubt her because reality is that there won’t always be proof. But we live in a day and age where women are crazier then men… I’m not going to take anyone’s side.. BUT I would hope that one wouldn’t lie about hitting someone, but I also pray that someone wouldn’t lie about being beat so badly….

And with that… I pray for both of them..

Hopefully there could be some type of compromise? Maybe not……… Who knows.

Sigh. If someone were to slander your name and falsely accuse you of being involved in anything that can put you in a negative light, that could do a lot of damage to your personal life and business life. Have you ever heard of DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER??

On a bigger note, I don’t know what truly happened in this situation so I can’t point the blame. I’m not gonna be bias and say I believe K. Michelle simply because she’s a woman; women lie too. But that doesn’t mean I’m siding with Memphitz either. Both of their stories seem shady to me. *shrug*. None of us know the entire truth because we were not there.

Only K. Michelle and Memphitz know what happened and hopefully they’ll settle this whole dispute in court because I’m tired of the back and forth. Both of them need to move on with their lives.

First & Foremost! WHY OH WHY would Memphitz sue someone WITHOUT ANY MONEY TO PAY???? Thus, the REASON for him NOT suing K. Michelle. Lets keep it funky. There are hardly any people who sue to uphold their moral character, especially if you have to SPEND money to do it. Hey, might as well try and MAKE some money. Now this is not me personally but my thoughts. Secondly, I don’t care if he beat the girl or not because its not my business; however, if someone is slandering your name, damaging your character to where you can not make a living to support yours, then you have every right to sue. I mean its like being black-balled in your industry basically. Third: It is QUITE OBVIOUS that he knows what he is up against by suing one of the biggest entertainment companies in the world, AND has ran thru the pros and cons of doing so.

Question? Do you guys really think Viacom would really let her tell her story without prove and if so don’t yoi guys think they would be prepared for something like this? He can call it a lost because I.doubt.he’ll see dime!

@tiffany good one
That’s right his a— anit getting a dime!!! His a loser!! Abuser!!!
Kmicheele just need to bring ALL that evidence out !!!
Heard today that Lil Wayne got a bodyguard for his daughter !! I think it’s needed!!!
Wow Necole we miss you yesterday but today, you came out swinging:)))

By her not mentioning his name on the show don’t make any difference whatsoever…. K. Michelle just not that convincing to me. If she was abused, then shame on Memphitz, If KM is lying then double shame on her.

he’s suing viacom trying to get a big settlemnt. this is his last chance to get rich. He has no job, no money and is living off of lil wayne. I wonder if wayne pays memphitz’s child support for his daughter too. I wanna hear from memphitz’s babymama.

I don’t condone domestic violence & any other kind of violence for that matter. I seriously doubt K.Michelle will get on national tv & lie about a man beating her. For 1, she NEVER said his name & for 2, he actually told on himself when he started going in on her on Twitter about how he “made her”. They always said that the “proof is in the pudding”. We will have to wait to see what the results are b/c Memphitz, I’m sorry to tell you this but, ummmmm…VIACOM & THE REST OF THE COMPANIES AREN’T ABOUT TO PAY YOU A DIME!

Ladies, if a man is beating on you, take a stand & get out of that relationship! It’s not worth your life

I totally agree. Memphis is digging a hole for himself. No one mentioned his name on the show. He is actually making her win. The more he gets angry and talks about what he did for her the more he looks like a ****. I hope he doesnt get paid one red cent. This nigga just money hungry and he saw this as a chance to make a come up.

All K. Michelle has to say is that she never mentioned who the person was on the show. No one would have known who he was if his people never came out and said anything. I believe her 100%. No woman would be so distraught about a situation if it werent true. AND as far as proof goes, some women get beat and never go for help. No one knows what really happened but him and her.

I seriously doubt that Mona would risk her empire by not checking the facts of K.Michelle story and seeing the texts for herself BEFORE she allowed her to come on the show and make those comments. I’m certain they are the ones that advised her to NOT say his name on the show. When you start throwing around absolutes and 100%’s you are in trouble in a court of law, any policeman or attorney will tell you that. First he was 100% innocent, then he admitted to covering her mouth (which could’ve cause her to blackout), and trying to restrain her. So which is it? You NEVER touched her (which is a lie cause y’all were a couple and had relations, so you touched her!), see where I’m going? Reasonable doubt!

Just my two cents… I don’t think Viacom, Monami Ent, and others would have let K. Michelle come on the show with those allegations without having already seen the proof and done some type of background check on the story. That part of the story would have surely been edited out, if it seemed shaky/faulty. I believe the proof is in a vault somewhere waiting for the opportune time to come out.

Really Memphitz, She never called your name on the show, besides…if you were so concern about her defaming you & your family, why did you wait till the end of the show….NOT A GOOD LOOK BOO!!! #SLEAZY & MONEY HUNGRY!!!

This is the part everyone is missing. K-Michelle’s story is like Karrine Steffans book…no one was gonna touch it if there wasn’t some proof. They covered their ass by not allowing K Michelle to say his name on the show. SO he CAN”T get them for slander.

Finally this is NOT a new story. She’s been telling this story for years. Blogs and other places glat out said it was Memphitz…he didn’t sue then but now? And if I remember correctly K. Michelle was let out of her contract, no debt and WITH her masters. Where they do that at?

AND Phitz was fired from Jive. That doesn’t mean he beat her BUT it does mean he likely ain’t as innocent as he’s acting. This is just a PR move that’s going no where. Likely he’s trying to make sure K Michelle can’t say anything about the incident come next season. He’s hoping they decide it’s not worth the headache.

1st thing: IF the police came and IF he beat her ass the way she says he did, whether she wanted to press charges or not he would have been arrested and the DA would have brought the charges againt him anyway by LAW. 2nd thing: Who brags about getting their ass beat?!? She talks about it way to much and only cries about it or shows real emotion when someone questions her story! 3rd: He has the right to sue everyone because K Michelle would have been totally irrelevant for the show if she didnt have this story line. The producers are looking for entertainment drama. So they picked up this story from her and ran with it. Her being a cast member of their show which brought these alligations to a bigger audience is the reason he is able to sue them. No she didnt mention his name on the show but she confirmed in interviews that she was talking about him and your name does NOT have to be mentioned in order to sue for defamation if you can prove that these things were being said about you, which he can do. He is suing her as well, go to K’s twitter page, she responds to HER being sued as well. As an A&R, he does not have access to her money to spend it like she claims. He submitts a budget and the accounting dept or whoever cuts the checks to the appropriate people, and proof of how the money was spent has to be given back to the label. So that story doesnt even make sense. It seems odd that she only started bringing this up once she seen him on Toyas show. On the first episode she said that she RECENTLY got of that relationship, we all know thats a lie because he has been with Toya for a few years now. As a female myself, I can see how she could exaggerate a story like this, because she was in love, bitter and hurt that he moved on with his life and on to another woman. He says that the reason they got into the argument from the begining is because she started acting crazy during a business meeting he was having with another female artist (jealous) and that he was done with her and the relationship after that because it wasnt the first time she had done that. I believe that if Toya wasn’t in his life or if he wasnt in a public relationship she would have never said anything. Its clear that something happend but I dont think that it to the extent that she calims. My opinion is that she got mad and started flipping out on him, kicking, punching and grabbing. He grabbed her to calm her down and covered her mouth because she was yelling causing others in the hotel to think something was going on. He stated that the people in the room next door called the police. If people did their research they would know that she wasn’t technically released from Jive due to this situation. Majority of Jive artists were a part of a merge/sale with with another record company and she was one of them. They probably gave her the masters to wipe their hands clean of her all the way because she is crazy. I have to agree with a statement Rasheeda gave, saying that how can you be an advocate for domestic abuse or claiming to be abused when all K does is verbally abuse people and always threatening to slap or fight somebody cause she “from Memphis”. Its a big contradication. All she talks about is being violent to other people, you dont hear him say anything violent. So who really looks guilty. Everybody loved him when he was on Toyas show and now everybody hates him and talks bad about him now that she has made these alligations , thats exactly why he is suing for defamation people!!!!

I totally agree with QueenMe. K. Michelle is a bitter braud. She is very childish. Not having a Wikipedia page??? Really!!!! That’s all you have to say about that girl. AnyWay…If you were brutally beat up the way you say you were, you would not be broadcasting it the way that you do. She’s mad because he married Toya and this is her way of trying to ruin him. Even the guy she was talking to about managing her was telling her “SHE” messed up her career not Memphitz. Sitting up there crying. You wouldn’t be crying like that if someone else messed things up for you. People talk about him not suing her….the old saying goes “You can’t pull blood from a turnip”. Translation, why sue somebody, who has nothing. No she didn’t say his name but she made sure everybody soon learned who she was talking about. Why get mad at Rasheeda saying she wasn’t there for you? She wasn’t your friend!!! And I think if he beat the way she says he did, wouldn’t you have some kind of marks somewhere?? And I’m not talking about some scratch here and there. Again I say SHE IS CHILDISH and acting like a “CHICKENHEAD”.

no one knows exactly what happends behind closed doors of a relationship unless your in it and living under the same roof no one knows and DV is hard to prove and not easy to speak on but she’s doing to help other women get the courage to stand up and she’s clearly getting bashed for it…

why does everyone keep asking for proof that he beat her its not like she recorded the beatings and some scars heal.. he and his wife are just looking to stay relevant… the real mistress of atlanta cant get picked up by a major network so he is trying to make money anyway he can i hope he doesn’t get a dime

I may be the only women that don’t believe her, but I really don’t believe her version of how things went down. She speaks of ONE fight that they had, most abusers will fight you more than once. I believe they did have a fight, I just do not believe her version of how the fight went on. This is a woman who has shown to the world that she is a abusive malicious person, yet so many people are quick to believe her version of the fight. She is quick to disrespect others and go off on them very quickly and yet she has convinced so many woman to believe her. now a days some women have learned that if you lie about dv people are going to take your side b/c why would someone lie. well here to tell you its alot of women that lie about that. Police came no arrest made. i dont care what anyone says if a man punch a woman its going to leave a bruise. also i know some crazy women that have attacked men b/c they didnt want them anymore and when the man tried to stop them from hitting them they tried to act like the man was wrong. i dont care how good she can sing, i think she is crazy as hell..
